God-Space

Lift up your eyes on high and see: who created these? He who brings out their host by number, calling them all by name, by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power not one is missing.
- Isaiah 40:26

On Thursday night I just happened to step out the front door and see a large meteor flash across the sky in front of me, burn up and disappear. Wow. A second later, I would have missed it. I've seen another of that size only once in my lifetime - a few months ago in fact. (Wonder if the sky is falling? Didn't help that our movie of the weekend on TV was "Asteroid"... :) )

It's amazing to consider the universe we live in. The millions and millions of planets, galaxies, systems, space objects - all just floating around in ordered chaos out there. The thought that God has other created "people" (see Job) somewhere out there, other planets in all that vastness - yup, we're not alone. And I can't wait to meet them when God recreates us for eternity with Him.

Ever stopped off in the middle of nowhere on a moonless night to just stare up into space? It's awesome.

Can anyone look at the stars and doubt there's a God, holding it all together? Can anyone not be in awe of His power and love of beauty?
